The Colorado Building

An entire Main Street landmark in the heart of Telluride, offering commanding ski area views, two commercial spaces, three residences, and the rare freedom to reimagine it all without historic restrictions.

You wake in the penthouse as morning sun floods through windows framing Ajax Peak, the gondola already carrying first tracks toward the summit. Coffee in hand, you climb to the rooftop deck and stand above it all—Main Street awakening below, the box canyon rising around you, ski runs etched into mountains that feel close enough to touch. By midday, you've walked downstairs and out the front door to lunch, your building anchoring you to the sunny side of Colorado Avenue while visitors stream past storefronts you now own. Afternoon finds you back on the roof, watching paragliders drift above town as shadows lengthen across the valley. Evening arrives slowly here. You host dinner in the penthouse, friends gathered around a table with views that silence conversation, then step outside to air so clean it feels borrowed from another century. Later, Main Street hums below your windows—live music spilling from doorways, laughter echoing off brick—and you realize you don't just live in Telluride. You own a piece of its beating heart.
